This was a fun way to explore an area of the city. Following a story, solving puzzles, and learning new facts along the way.
The length of the game adventure felt right, however the end point is about a 20-25 minute walk away from the start point. Also, the game title is misleading a bit because the last 3-5 clues take you OUT of the Distillery District and into Corktown. We were surprised at first, given the game's title. ????
Also, there were missing clues and errors in some of the puzzles. Directions could have been a bit more clear too. We didn't want to use any hints at first, but we had to after we spent about 20 minutes on a puzzle which clue was missing ????. After that we just used some hints when we got stuck more than 5-10 minutes, and didn't let these errors ruin our experience. With that said, I can see someone who is more competitive getting very frustrated with the experience.
Overall I had a real fun time, and will give another of their scenarios in another area a try sometime. ???? So I would recommend this activity, with the caveat to not do it if you are of competitive person or expect a perfect experience.
